No other country excels in the smallholder context like Burundi. Producers sell their small harvest to washing stations, which have drastically improved their quality control practices over the last 10 years. Nkaka Washing Station near Gikingo (just south of the Rwanda border) is a longstanding washing station, having been built in 1979. It collects from roughly 2,400 smallholder farmers in the surrounding area.
Burundi coffees are typically fully washed, meaning cherries are collected at the washing station, sorted to remove overripes and underripes, then poured into the cherry hopper. After an overnight fermentation underwater, cherries dry on raised beds.
Crop to Cup has worked in Burundi since 2010 and has found fantastic lots from many washing stations. We are happy to bring this one to you!
